Green software for energy effective data communication

Oricane is a pioneer in Energy Efficient Software – Green Software; making the Internet of today and the Internet of the future more cost effective and environmentally friendly.

By providing faster, simpler, cheaper and more environment friendly solutions for Data Communications and Databased Applications, Oricane minimizes Internet's overall energy consumption.

The fantastic growth of the Internet

Today there are over 1.97 billion Internet users the world over and the estimated annual growth of the Internet is 50% to 60%. Information that is stored on the Internet (such as pictures and emails) doubles every 18 months - the digital universe is currently 800 000 000 000 000 000 000 bytes big. That is like a pile of books that stretches to the moon and back again!

To manage the amazing growth of the Internet we will have to upgrade from IPv4 to IPv6. As it is today, IPv4 can handle approximately 4.2 billion Internet connections, and this won’t be enough in the future. In tomorrow’s Internet when IPv6 is up and running the number of Internet connections can be increased to over 340 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 billion.

Currently the Internet absorbs over 5% of the total world supply of electricity, in laymen’s terms that is the equivalent consumption of 60 million households (the total population of the UK), or the annual production of 90 coal fired power stations, 135 million dollars or 900 million tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions.

Technology

Oricane’s product BioCAM™ is a data structure making the Internet of today and Internet of the future more cost effective and energy efficient.

BioCAM™ is the innovative invention of Oricane’s founder and the result of 11 years of Computer Science research. Today the technology used in BioCAM™ is protected by 9 awarded patents.

For Data Communications, BioCAM™ offers effective classification of Internet traffic in routers and firewalls – transportation of information over the Internet. For Database Applications, BioCAM™ is the optimal solution for database indexing – storage and searching for information in databases that are managed by servers connected to the Internet.

BioCAM’s™ customer advantages for Data Communications are:

• minimized memory- and CPU costs for routers and firewalls
• minimized need for cooling in routers and firewalls
• maximized search performance in routers and firewalls
• guaranteed search performance – no need for over dimensioning
• high speed updates - on the fly!
• full support for IPv4 (today’s Internet)
• full support for IPv6 (tomorrow’s Internet)
• increased product and service margins for OEM customers
• reduced owner costs for service providers, companies and consumers
• ultra low energy consumption

BioCAM’s™ customer advantages for Database Indexing are:

• minimized memory- and CPU costs for database servers
• minimized need for cooling in database servers
• maximized  search performance in database servers
• guaranteed search performance – no need for over dimensioning
• high speed updates - on the fly!
• increased product and service margins for OEM customers
• reduced owner costs for service suppliers, companies and consumers
• ultra low energy consumption

For Data Communications, the energy consumption can easily be reduced by over 95 % for IPv6, compared to the business sector standard.

For Data Base Applications, BioCAM™ is 70% faster and and uses 70% less memory, compared to the business sector standard.
